The Red Devils have lost two of their last three Premier League games, suffering a defeat at the hands of Newcastle United last time out on league duty.

They also lost to Tottenham at the end of January, therefore a victory over a rival is needed just to stabilise their form in the top flight.Chelsea played well against Barcelona during the week in their Champions League match. Only the brilliance of Lionel Messi prevented them emerging from the contest with a victory. It remains all to play for as Conte’s side return their focus to the league.
